Description

Eckford (Brooklyn) 35

Newark (Newark) 19

(New York Clipper: “The third contest between these clubs, laid over from last season, … the Eckfords … were out in full force, and in admirable trim for the occasion.  The Newarkers, on the contrary, did not have the useful services of either Mills, Wilsin, or Garthwaite, and this rather dampened their ardor, for they did not play by any means with their accustomed ability.”)

Comment

Spence replaced Grum who sprained his knee, "again" while rounding third base in the first inning. (E. Miklich)
